Geocache Description:

The coordinates listed are for the check-in point, the tent just behind the Hinckley Boathouse. This event is 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 17, 2004.

Join us in Hinckley Reservation and find hidden geocaches in many different ways: hike, bike, roll, wade, drive, canoe and kayak.

There will be eight different multi-caches, each with different modes of transportation and different terrain and difficulty levels. You may find as many of the eight as you would like durring the alloted time.

Each group of people must supply their own GPS unit.

If you have bikes or roller blades, please bring them.

Cleveland Metroparks canoes and kayaks will be available to use. You must fill out a waiver form at check-in to use one of our boats. Children whose parents or guardians have not signed a waiver will not be allowed out in the boats. There is a limited number of canoes and kayaks.

People using wheelchairs or strollers are welcome to participate. If you would like to speak with our Adaptive Recreation Specialist, she would be glad to talk to you about adapting any part of this event if you have mobility or other limitations. Please call (216)341-1704 and ask for April for more information.

Check-in will be in the tent behind the Boat House. An adult must accompany all children. If a child’s parent will not be present, please call in advance for a permission slip and waiver form (440) 247-7075 or geocaching@clevelandmetroparks.com.

Please come prepared for the weather and active outdoor activities. There is a small consession stand on site, but you might want to bring some beverages or a picnic with you.

It is not necessary to leave anything in the caches. There will be things to take and we will have a drawing for some larger prize items.

If you have any questions, call (440) 247-7075 or geocaching@clevelandmetroparks.com. Reservations are not necessary. There is no fee for this event.
